Delegate Dashboard

When a filtering policy blocks a student from a web page, the Access Denied page appears. Students can send an Access Request from that page, if enabled by your Blocksi administrator.

As a delegate, you receive the requests from students in your assigned organizational units. Requests from students in other organizational units do not appear on your dashboard. The administrator sees every request, including yours.

Your queue holds both in-school and out-of-school requests. The Student column shows the student's location next to their email address. Requests for pages blocked by a teacher during an active class session go to that teacher instead.

To access the Access Requests page, click Filtering from the Main Menu, then click Access Requests from its sub-menu. The page shows all pending requests from students in your delegated organizational units.

From there, you can also enable email notifications for incoming requests. Click Switch ON to Receive Email Notifications to turn notifications on, and click it again to turn them off. When notifications are on, Blocksi emails every address on the recipient list each time a student in your organizational units submits an Access Request.

To add a recipient, type their email address in the Input email for notifications text box, then click the button. To review and manage the full list, click the button. The Access Requests Recipients window opens.

Allowing or Denying an Access Request

When a student submits an Access Request, it appears in the Access Requests table.

Each row shows the following:

• Student - The student's email address and their location.

• Website - The URL the student tried to access.

• Reason - The reason the student selected: Educational Purpose, Teacher Request, Parent Request, or Other.

• Action - The available actions for the request.

Important

Allowing a request requires an Exception List assigned to the student's organizational unit. If none is assigned, create and assign one under Organizational Units, then allow the request again.

Locate the request in the Access Requests table, then click one of the following icons in the Action column:

Icon	Action	Description
	Open URL	Opens the requested page so you can review its content before deciding.
	Allow	Adds the requested URL as an allowed entry to the Exception List assigned to the student's organizational unit, and removes the request from the table.
	Deny	Denies the request and removes it from the table.

Tip

To allow or deny several requests at once, select the checkbox next to each request, then click the or button.
